The class is just not set up to handle this many oGCDs this often and this quickly, and pretty much no class likes repeatedly and consistently double weaving.

If this were Red Mage, it would at least make some sense because RDM has every other GCD being instant cast as a guarantee, but SMN is not and it can't handle the sheer bulk of abilities flying out, so it clashes heavily with the actual abilities of the class.
I pointed this out in the other thread, but it feels like the intent is for us use Ruin II to weave oGCDs and to use the instant Ruin IIIs provided by the initial DWT to dump as many of our charged oGCDs as we can, e.g. try and get Energy Drain, Fester, and both Egi Assaults on complete CD before the end of DWT, so we can be casting Ruin III more often, only using Ruin II/IV as necessary to cast an oGCD.
